He's going to break so many records this year.

55 kickoff returns for career. 8 shy of Adams for #1. He had 42 last year so he should destroy that mark.

Became #1 in Kickoff return yardage in game and season last year. Has 1351 for his career and his just 240 yards shy of Adams for #1. He should destroy that mark as well.

He doesn't field as many punts as kickoffs but combined punts and kickoffs he has 82 (61 last year alone which was #1 in a season) and could catch Adams for #1 at 160 (needs 78).

Punt return and kickoff return combined yardage he was #1 in a season last year with 1195. He is #2 all time at 1685 and trails Adams with 2651 (966 behind).

Thus he needs:
8 Kickoff Returns to tie Adams #1 career
240 Kickoff return yards to tie Adams #1 career
78 combined punts/kickoffs to tie Adams #1 career
966 combined punt/kickoff yards to tie Adams #1 career

Add in his 1475 career receiving yards and he is at 3160 all-purpose yards for his career. He had 1875 all-purpose yards in 07 so he could possibly top 5,000 all-purpose yards by the end of the season.

Good stuff, great player.

Nothing against Quan, but the fewer kicks he returns this year, the better I will like it.

Well, yes and no. A high number of punt returns indicates the defense is doing it's job. A high number of kickoff returns means we're Tech.

Little scoring allowed, lots of turnovers caused. Punts are for soft defenses.

I'd like to see him avg. about one kickoff return a game this year.
